TG Nickel has successfully completed the first continuous pour of the mat “A” portion of the foundation. 2,150 cubic yards of concrete were delivered to the site across 215 trucks, sourced from 3 different concrete plants. This was a major achievement for our team, as it allowed us to complete a large section of the building’s foundation over one weekend rather than breaking it up over several work weeks.
